Definitions
- This invention relates generally to transmitting and receiving multicarrier modulated signals.
- the invention provides a system and method for estimating and correcting any frequency offset and timing mismatch at the receiver, prior to demodulating the received signal.
- DAB Digital Audio Broadcast
- MCM Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
- OFDM Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
- IFFT inverse Fast Fourier Transform
- the present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for implementing the method, for quick and accurate identification of the individual carrier frequencies.
- a MCM transmitted symbol can be represented by the equation
- N the number of orthogonal carriers used in the scheme, each of which is to be sampled over T seconds
- NT the MCM symbol interval.
- the parameters N and T are chosen to satisfy specific bit rate requirements of a particular application. For example, in S. ⁇ .
- the transmitted information sequence can be recovered perfectly at the receiver by sampling the received signal every T seconds and after receiving N samples performing an ⁇ - point FFT on the received sequence.
- the FFT at the receiver performs like a matched filter at each of the ⁇ carrier frequencies.
- the orthogonality of the transmitted carriers has to be maintained at the receiver.
- ISI intersymbol interference
- receiver frequency offset and timing errors all contribute to destroying the orthogonality of the transmitted carriers and can result in severe performance degradations if left uncompensated.
- a well-known technique for dealing with intersymbol interference is the insertion of a "guard interval" at the beginning of each transmitted symbol. See A. Alard and R. Lassalle, Principles of Modulation and Channel Coding for Digital Broadcasting for Mobile Receivers EBU Review, No. 224 (August 1987), hereby inco ⁇ orated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
- a receiver may detect a direct signal and one or more delayed reflections of the same signal, such as off a skyscraper, as the sum of these multiple signals.
- the guard interval enables the receiver to resolve these signals in order to accurately detect the direct signal alone.
- Frequency offset and time synchronization are also critical to accurately retrieve the transmitted data.
- Frequency offset occurs when a carrier frequency undergoes a phase shift during transmission and the receiver frequency is not perfectly aligned with the transmission frequency. This phase shift causes the carriers to lose their orthogonal characteristic. Because the carriers are inherently closely spaced in frequency compared to the channel bandwidth, there is a very low tolerance for even a small frequency offset relative to the channel bandwidth. To properly retrieve the transmitted data from the carrier, the receiver must be able to compensate for this frequency offset.
- a receiver To properly synchronize a receiver and an incoming signal, a receiver must know the bit transfer rate, so that as a signal is received, the receiver samples the incoming signal at the appropriate sample interval T. However, timing involves more than the sample interval T. The receiver must also know the sample marking the beginning of each symbol interval NT. If the sampler is not properly aligned with the symbol interval, the sampling window will overlap and process the symbols detected over multiple symbol intervals as if they were all part of one symbol interval, rather than process the symbols of one symbol interval, alone. Determining the beginning of each symbol interval is referred to as symbol synchronization. Symbol synchronization and accurate knowledge of sample interval T.are collectively known as time synchronization. The importance of frequency offset and time synchronization notwithstanding, very little has appeared in the literature regarding frequency and time synchronization issues for MCM systems. One method for frequency offset estimation is described in P.H. Moose, A
- AWGN additive white Gaussian noise
- This signal is sampled by the receiver at intervals of T+AT and an initial offset ⁇ .
- the clock error AT is assumed to be small enough so that N samples are obtained during the symbol interval.
- Sampling r(t) at [n(T + ⁇ T) + ⁇ ] each sample along symbol interval Nr can be expressed as
- N-I R - ⁇ r k e- J2 ⁇ nk/ N (4)
- each sample R n comprises a direct signal component S n , an interference component I n and an AWG ⁇ component W tro.
- the signal component can be expressed as The signal component can be expressed as
- the SIR(H) is a function of n due to the fact that the convolution is time variable, and the SIR can be approximated to
- a transmitter- receiver system for transmitting and receiving MCM signals, whereby any frequency offset and timing mismatch can be determined and corrected simultaneously, prior to demodulating the received signal.
- a system, method and data structure are provided in which prior to the transmission of data, a plurality of single tone signals are first transmitted.
- the receiver is outfitted with a Frequency Offset and Timing Estimator for receiving the plurality of single tone signals, estimating any frequency offset and timing mismatch and correcting the sampler and sampled signal accordingly, prior to demodulating the sampled signal.
- a method is also provided for determining and correcting any frequency offset and timing mismatch simultaneously, and prior to demodulating a received signal.
- the method includes transmitting data with a preamble comprising a plurality of single tone signals which are used by the receiver to estimate any frequency offset and timing mismatch.
- the estimated timing mismatch is input to a timing control device for correcting the sampler component of the receiver and the estimated frequency offset is input to a frequency control device for corrected the sampled symbols.
- the mismatches are both corrected prior to demodulating the received signal.
- Fig. 1 is a block diagram of a MCM receiver showing frequency offset compensation and timing estimation according to the present invention.
- Fig. 2 depicts a data structure as used in connection with the transmitter- receiver system of the present invention.
- Fig. 3 is a block diagram of the frequency offset compensation and timing estimation process according to the present invention.
- FIG.l a block diagram of a MCM receiver is shown.
- Analog Digital Converter (11) samples the incoming analog signal at intervals of T seconds.
- Null Detect block (12) detects the null symbol as shown in FIG.2.
- the digitized signal also enters block (13) in which a Hubert transform filter converts the received real signal to a complex form.
- the signal then enters block (14) which uses the output of Null Detect (12) as a rough indicator of the first symbol of each
- SUBSTITUTE SHEET ⁇ RULE 26 block of data.
- Remove Guard block (14) removes the guard interval preceding each symbol.
- the timing synchronization information ⁇ T /T is input to Timing Control block (16) and the frequency offset ⁇ is input to Frequency Control block (18).
- the received signal is adjusted to compensate for any frequency offset based on the estimate received from block (15).
- Analog-Digital Converter (1 1) has been corrected for ⁇ T 11 and any frequency offset of the sampled signal, has been compensated.
- the receiver now takes the FFT of the synchronized and compensated signal in block (20).
- Symbol Synchronizer and Channel Estimator (21) tap symbols S3 and S4 from the output of FFT block (20) and determine the start of each symbol interval and also estimate the frequency response of each carrier, i.e., H k .
- the symbol synchronization is input to Remove Guard block (14) to be used together with the information from Null Detect block (12) to determine the start of the first symbol of the next symbol interval.
- the estimated frequency response H k is input to Equalizer (22) which determines the maximum likelihood representation of each data symbol at their respective carrier frequencies.
- the transmitter receiver system of the present invention in which frequency offset compensation and timing synchronization occurs simultaneously and prior to the FFT operation of a receiver, involves a specific data structure which includes at least two (2) single tone symbols which precede the symbols corresponding to the information sought to be transmitted.
- a specific data structure which includes at least two (2) single tone symbols which precede the symbols corresponding to the information sought to be transmitted.
- FIG.2 one preferred data structure as used in the present invention, is shown comprising a preamble, composed of five symbols, followed by a sequence of data symbols, i.e. the information sought to be transmitted.
- the first symbol is a null symbol, used to obtain a coarse estimate of the start of each symbol interval.
- a simple energy detector detects a sudden increase in energy from the null symbol to S 1 thereby roughly indicating the first symbol of each block of data.
- S 1 and S2 Following the null symbol are single tone symbols S 1 and S2 with different frequencies, transmitted over consecutive data intervals of length Nr, and separated by a guard interval of length N g T.
- the frequencies of S 1 and S2 can be expressed as M IN1 and M 2 INT, respectively.
- M, and M 2 should have relatively small values, whose difference is large.
- SI and S2 are then followed by symbols S3 and S4 which contain all the carrier frequencies of the data symbols and are used for symbol synchronization. Finally, S3 and S4 are followed by the symbols corresponding to the desired information.
- the frequency offset and timing mismatch can be determined prior to performing an FFT over the received symbols, since these symbols do not require any demodulation.
- the mechanics of estimating the frequency offset and timing mismatch using SI and S2 proceeds as follows:.
- the expression for the received samples over a symbol interval, as shown in equation (3), can be rewritten as
- Estimator (15) begins in block (31 ) by dividing the samples of each symbol interval, in half, and forms the following sample vectors from the samples of SI and S2.
- R2 a r N + Ng ,..., r 3 + Ng .j (16)
- SI and S2 are consecutive symbols, each of length NT, due to the guard interval of length N g T between these two symbols, S2 is first sampled at time (N+Ng)T.
- N the guard interval of length N g T between these two symbols
- S2 is first sampled at time (N+Ng)T.
- S3 and S4 the symbols used for precise symbol synchronization are modulated over multiple carriers, precise symbol synchronization is only available after demodulating S3 and S4, whereas an objective of the present invention is to estimate and correct any frequency offset and timing mismatch prior to demodulation.
- Estimator (15) computes the maximum likelihood estimate of ⁇ ] and ⁇ 2 , as shown in block (32) and given by
- the maximum likelihood estimate is a consistent estimate, which means that the estimate of a function, for example, the estimates of ⁇ ! and ⁇ 2 , can be used to estimate a function, such as frequency offset ⁇ and timing mismatch ATjT , of the estimated ⁇ , and ⁇ 2 , ⁇ and. AT/T can be estimated from the estimates of Q ⁇ and ⁇ .
- the maximum likelihood estimates of ⁇ and ⁇ T/T are computed in block (33) as,
- T ⁇ (M2 - Mj) T ⁇ (M2 - Mj) respectively.
- the range of ⁇ that can be estimated by this procedure can be increased by shortening the length of each of the vectors used in the estimation procedure. For small ⁇ T/T and a vector length of N/2, the range over which ⁇ can be estimated unambiguously is I ⁇
- the mathematical operations involved in arriving at these estimates can be implemented with specific physical components, such as multipliers, adders, and a readable memory for storage of a lookup table, or they can be implemented through a general pu ⁇ ose or dedicated microprocessor executing software instructions.
- Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) on the variances of the frequency offset and timing mismatch estimates is given by
- the Cramer-Rao lower bound is a measure of the variance of the best estimator for any problem. Indeed, these expressions can be used as exact variances instead of lower bounds, since the maximum likelihood estimate satisfies the Cramer-Rao lower bound.
- a more detailed description of the Cramer- Rao lower bound can be found in J.M. Mendel, Lessons in Digital Estimation Theory, (1987), hereby inco ⁇ orated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
- Equations (26) and (27) show that lower variance of frequency offset ⁇ and timing mismatch ⁇ T/T is obtained by using values of M ⁇ and 2 which are widely spaced.
- , and M 2 should each be relatively small.
- One skilled in the art will be able to readily experiment with and ascertain highly efficient values of M and 2 , in order to minimize the variance of the estimates.
- Other factors, such as distortion due to frequency band edges and known interferers at certain frequencies will also influence the optimum choice of , and M 2 .
